I disagree. I grew tired of looking through lists of names 2 years ago. So keep posting those great names about to drop just in case it's one I might be interested in. :)

I see your point. With the stable of names you have built you now have the luxury of not having to follow the lists as closely as you did when you were acquiring your inventory. I stand corrected. :)

Anybody try to grab "laborunion.net" being dropped soon ? :D

I think that it should be free to post anything.
Anyway, I don't post _my_ target domains in public place ;)

bwahaha. congrats george. glad one of the good guys got it.

by the way everyone.,
I would not have posted this name, but several days ago the bids were already in the 5-10k range so it's not as if i ruined it for some guy who had a $25 bid at namewinner and the expirefish.

i think its fun sometimes just to get a high stakes drop going
and let the chips fall where they may.

The cat is out of the bag. . . I have been doing this WAY longer than anybody else has (or at least I think :D )



Although some owners have very unrealistic expectations, at the same time it's sometimes just unbelievable how many don't have a clue how much more their name is actually worth than what they're asking for.

Oh yes...... VERYYYYYYYYYY True :D :D :D :D :D

Although I haven't been doing it as much as I probably should, I've also found that contacting owners directly can be VERY successful at what one would consider bargain-of-the-year prices!
